Monday

This morning we were lead through morning meeting by Max. Afterwards, we dove right into some talk about fish. We read One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish by Dr. Seuss. They then asked for another story (talk about melting my heart!), so we read Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister.

      

     We then decided to make our own fish, by decorating cds with gems and jewels. We'll finish them later this week by adding more jewels and gems to the other side and adding fins and a tail. We then cleaned up for fruit break and fruit break recess. After fruit break recess, we had music class. They listened for sounds and identified the air conditioner running and people talking. They also did the wiggle dance. Be sure to ask them to show it to you!
     After music, they asked for yet another story. I didn't want to disappoint, so we read Fish Eyes by Lois Ehlert. This is a counting book. We discovered after counting the fish, there are ten total in the story. We then counted our classmates and discovered that if we were fish, we'd have eight fish.


Later this morning, we used some watercolor paints and painted fish. It's been a fishy morning! ;-)
